the tension didn't build till late and when jordan zimmerman came in and struck out in the 7th, this crowd had been waiting for two days for an excuse to go nuts and it started to build and build. they couldn't have scripted it better. i think the newness of this here i think made such a difference. >> reporter: it was special. how do you come down from that and play a game the next day? that will be difficult for the nats tonight. >> yeah, it is, but i heard a lot of the right things from guys last night. there's a saying in baseball, momentum is as good as the next day's starting pitcher. this is the key here. it's on gio gonzalez. he was disappointed on the first start. however he pitches i think will determine where this game goes. >> reporter: that's the pitching angle. what about the hitting? they haven't done it in the last couple games. bryce harper has struggled. >> a lot of them have struggled. scouts know if you can bust the nationals' hitters inside, you got to be good and can't make a mistake, but if you, can you can hole them down. that's what st. louis has -- hold them
